1 A LAT E X Tutorial Evangelos Milios March 15, 2004
2 What is LAT E X LAT E X is a typesetter. processor. It is not WYSIWYG. It is not a word Author specifies the structure of the document symbolically (in a mark-up language), without worrying about the formatting (like XML) LAT E X takes care of the formatting of the document according to the specified document style LAT E X files are text files, with mark-up for sectioning, equations, tables and figures. 1
3 Why is LAT E X better than Microsoft Word for theses and papers? Professional quality typesetting of documents, and, in particular, equations Automatic numbering and crossreferencing of references figures and tables equations sections and pages 2
4 Document style change from thesis to conference or journal paper is more or less trivial. Baseline font size change is trivial, and scales headings and equations, too. Automatic placement of floating objects (figures and tables) Equations are not graphics. text. They are an integral part of the
5 Automatic generation of table of contents list of figures list of tables index Archival: LAT E X files can be processed and printed decades later. LAT E X files cannot be corrupted! De facto standard for publishing scientific documents, especially medium-to-large ones. WYSIWYG products running on top of LAT E X exist, but they are expensive (US$450/single user). See: products Scientific Word.
6 The LAT E X process Option 1 (open source): The LAT E X file is processed with latex to generate a DVI file The DVI file is processed with dvips to generate a Postscript file The Postscript file can be: previewed using Ghostview printed converted to pdf format using command ps2pdf or Acrobat Distiller. Option 2: The LAT E X file is processed with pdflatex to produce a pdf file directly. 3
7 The LAT E X process File.tex Latex or File.dvi File.dvi Latex or File.dvi Pdflatex Bibtex Pdflatex (x2) File.bbl File.aux Dvips & ps2pdf File.ps Refs.bib File.pdf User provides: File.tex, Refs.bib Files using latex: File.dvi, File.bbl, File.aux, File.ps Printable file: File.ps or convert to pdf via ps2pdf(unix) or Acrobat Distiller (Win)) Files using pdflatex: File.bbl, File.aux, File.pdf 4
8 How to get started with LAT E X Get hold of a thesis or paper in LAT E X Use it as a template Use MikTeX for Windows gnuemacs LAT E X editing mode on Unix, and the latex, bibtex, dvips, ps2pdf or pdflatex, bibtex commands 5
9 A very simple LAT E X file From Getting Started with L A T E X, by David R. Wilkins \documentclass[12pt]{article} \begin{document} The foundations of the rigorous study of \emph{analysis} were laid in the nineteenth century, notably by the mathematicians Cauchy and Weierstrass. Central to the study of this subject are the formal definitions of \emph{limits} and \emph{continuity}. Let $D$ be a subset of $\bf R$ and let $f \colon D \to \mathbf{r}$ be a real-valued function on $D$. The function $f$ is said to be \emph{continuous} on $D$ if, for all $\epsilon > 0$ and for all $x \in D$, there exists some $\delta > 0$ (which may depend on $x$) such that if $y \in D$ satisfies \[ y - x < \delta \] then \[ f(y) - f(x) < \epsilon. \] One may readily verify that if $f$ and $g$ are continuous functions on $D$ then the functions $f+g$, $f-g$ and $f.g$ are continuous. If in addition $g$ is everywhere non-zero then $f/g$ is continuous. \end{document} 6
10 And the file after typesetting The foundations of the rigorous study of analysis were laid in the nineteenth century, notably by the mathematicians Cauchy and Weierstrass. Central to the study of this subject are the formal definitions of limits and continuity. Let D be a subset of R and let f: D R be a real-valued function on D. The function f is said to be continuous on D if, for all ɛ > 0 and for all x D, there exists some δ > 0 (which may depend on x) such that if y D satisfies then y x < δ f(y) f(x) < ɛ. One may readily verify that if f and g are continuous functions on D then the functions f + g, f g and f.g are continuous. If in addition g is everywhere non-zero then f/g is continuous. 7
11 Figures (photographs or diagrams) in LAT E X Must be in encapsulated postscript (eps) (for latex) or pdf or jpeg format (for pdflatex) Diagrams can be generated with a drawing program that can export into encapsulated postscript, e.g. CorelDraw, Dia, Powerpoint (Windows), Xfig (Unix), or print into pdf format. Eps file is included into a LAT E X file using includegraphics Size and orientation can be adjusted with includegraphics Example: Previous Figure made in CorelDraw, exported into eps/pdf, included in latex file as: \includegraphics[scale=0.7]{./latexprocessing} latex will use the eps version, pdflatex will use the pdf version. 8
12 Structure of a LAT E X file: preamble \documentclass[12pt]{article} \pagestyle{plain} \usepackage{graphicx} % include macros for including eps or pdf figure files \usepackage{setspace} \onehalfspacing %\newcommand{\comment}[1]{ {\tiny {#1} } } % show comments, for editing \newcommand{\comment}[1]{ } %hide comments, for final version \long\def\invis#1{} % make text invisible \begin{document}} \title{blah Blah...} \author{ {\em Student name, Evangelos Milios}\\ Faculty of Computer Science, {\tt \{eem\}@cs.dal.ca}} \date{} \maketitle % no date % make the title page here \begin{abstract} blah, blah,... \end{abstract} 9
13 Structure of a LAT E X file: body \section{introduction} \label{introduction} blah, blah,... In Section \ref{bodyofwork},... In Section \ref{discussion}... \section{body of work} \label{bodyofwork} blah, blah,... \section{discussion} \label{discussion} \paragraph{acknowledgements} blah, blah,... \bibliographystyle{plain} \bibliography{reference} % reference.bib contains the references \appendix \section{my code} \section{excruciating details about my experiments} \tableofcontents \end{document} 10
14 References Placed in a bibliography file (.bib) Each reference has a key Cited in the text by \cite{key} Bibliography section constructed and formatted automatically Items are numbered and correct numbers are placed in the text automatically 11
15 Example of a bib AUTHOR = "H. Lewis and C. Papadimitriou", TITLE = "Elements of the Theory of Computation", PUBLISHER = "Prentice-Hall", YEAR = "1998", ADDRESS = "Upper Saddle River, NJ 07458" AUTHOR = "I. Muslea and S. Minton and C. Knoblock.", TITLE = "Hierarchical Wrapper Induction for Semistructured Information Sources", JOURNAL = "Journal of Autonomous Agents and Multi-Agent Systems", VOLUME = "4", YEAR = "2001", PAGES = "93-114" } Other types are available, too: INBOOK, TECHREPORT, INPRO- CEEDINGS,... 12
16 Slides in LAT E X Recommended when you have equations and figures already in LAT E X (simple cutting and pasting between slides and thesis/paper) The slides class: Formats appropriately for slides No floating bodies (figure, table) Allows colours and overlays Powerpoint-like effects are possible. For Display, convert to pdf format and use Acrobat. 13
17 History of LAT E X T E X was created by Donald Knuth in the late seventies. LAT E X was written by Leslie Lamport as a more or less self-contained set of macros for T E X in the early eighties (1983). At the same time (early eighties), the American Mathematical Society developed AMS-T E X, causing a split in the mathematical community. In 1990, the AMS introduced AMS-LAT E X, splitting the community even further. LAT E X2e was introduced in 1993, unifying LAT E X and AMS-LAT E X. In 1995, the AMS released version 1.2 of AMS-LaTeX built on top of LAT E X2e. Just what is T E X? 14
18 Summary When to use LAT E X? For a scientific document such as a thesis, textbook, monograph, or paper For a document with a complex structure, bibliography and cross-references that will be revised several times When typesetting of professional quality is required Any document that you want to be able to read many years later 15
19 When not to use LAT E X? For a letter or short memo of a short lifespan For a short document with a simple structure and few and simple, or no, equations Foreign language support may be limited. There is support for greek, arabic (arabtex), and Chinese. What is LAT E X not good at? Very small selection of fonts Lack of control over the precise layout of the document (if you need it).
